Almond & Dark Chocolate Protein Chocolates

Now, the recipe below contains two variations: the first is all-natural and includes coconut sugar. The second features a sugar alternative instead of the coconut sugar. The difference between them is, primarily, one of kcals and carbs, with the Sukrin Gold featuring a lot less of each.

Flavor and texture-wise though, they’re pretty similar! We’ve given you the macros for both below. Only thing we want you to note here is that *some* people react a bit… ‘weirdly’ to erythritol (it makes them bloated) so if are making your chocolates for someone else and you’re not sure how they may react to the erythritol, just make them avec some coconut sugar.

Ingredients
(Click here to convert it all to cups and tbsp!)

30g gluten-free oat flour (or almonds if you don’t want to use oats!)
25g whey protein powder
25g coconut flour
1/4 cup (50g) coconut sugar
A  bit under 1/4 cup (20g) cocoa powder
A bit over 1/2 cup (70ml) almond milk
1/4 cup (30g) ground almonds
2 bars 85% dark chocolate

Directions:

1. Mix your ingredients together until you get a soft dough that tastes delicious. If it’s too wet, add a bit more of the coconut flour. If it’s too dry, a tiny bit more of the milk 🙂
2. Melt your dark chocolate (in a bain marie – a glass bowl on top of a pot of boiling water).
3. Get out a chocolate mould.
4. Pour 1/2 of your melted chocolate in the mould, pushing it around the edges with a spoon so that the edges and bottom are coated in melted chocolate.
5. Grab little bits of your protein dough and add little ‘balls’ of it inside each chocolate mould (on top of the melted chocolate). Once you’ve done the whole tray, cover all the dough with the rest of the melted chocolate.
6. Let the chocolates cool in the fridge for a 2-3 hours or in the freezer for 30mins.
7. Unmould your chocolates and… ENJOY!
